Porters Walk

What Porters Walk's governing documents say

Porters Walk is a planned community in Wilmington, NC, governed by a homeowners' association (HOA). This declaration applies to all lot owners, residents, and their guests. It establishes rules for residential use, occupancy, architectural control, and assessments.

• Occupancy & use: Lots are for single-family residential use only. All occupants of a single lot must be members of a single family (related by blood, marriage, adoption, or guardianship, or up to three unrelated persons living as a single housekeeping unit).
• Leasing & rentals: The association may require a minimum lease term of six months and otherwise regulate leasing, but cannot prohibit leasing or require consent for transfer. Lots subject to FHA/VA mortgages may have additional protections.
• Architectural review: No exterior improvements (including fences, landscaping, or repainting outside the original color scheme) may be made without prior written approval from the Declarant or the Architectural Review Committee. Interior changes visible from outside also require approval.
• Parking & vehicles: Only licensed, operative passenger vehicles may be regularly parked in driveways. Recreational vehicles must be screened from view. No vehicle may be used as a dwelling. Regular parking on roadways is prohibited.
• Signs: No signs or advertising are allowed on lots or common areas, except for marketing by the Declarant and professionally prepared for-sale/for-rent signs no larger than 18" x 24".
• Pets & animals: The document does not specify pet restrictions; however, the association may adopt rules and regulations regarding pets.
• Assessments & fees: The association levies base assessments on all lots to fund common expenses. Special and specific assessments may also be levied. Assessments create a lien on the lot and a personal obligation of the owner.
• What this document doesn't cover: This is the master declaration for the community. It does not include the full text of the initial Rules and Regulations (Exhibit C) or the Architectural Guidelines, which may contain additional restrictions on pets, noise, and other day-to-day matters.
